Saveabend File Creation

The Dynamic Saveabend File Creation feature helps to create a saveabend file of a running

Java process, without abending (aborting) the Java process, by issuing a signal to the

process. This feature allows the Java process to continue normal execution after the abend

file is created. The time taken to create the abend file, that is, application pause time is low

(measurable in milliseconds).

The saveabend file enables you to analyze any observed Java runtime problems, such as

high memory consumption, low responsiveness, without impacting the running Java

process.

Synopsis

To create a saveabend file in the working directory of the process, complete the following steps:

Export DUMP_CORE=1.1.

Start the Java application.2.

Press Ctrl-break while the process is running.3.
